Workshop Overview

This workshop equips learners with the theoretical foundations and clinical application of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT): Behaviour Intervention (BI). In addition to gaining sound theoretical knowledge, learners will develop essential core skills to effectively implement CBT behavioural strategies in clinical settings.

CBT is a highly structured, short-term, present-focused psychotherapy that helps clients resolve psychological distress by modifying dysfunctional thoughts and maladaptive behaviours. Among the most evidence-based psychotherapies available today, CBT has demonstrated proven effectiveness in treating clinical depression, anxiety disorders, and other mental health concerns.

This Level 2 masterclass is designed for individuals who wish to practise CBT Behaviour Intervention but have not yet received formal training. It is ideal for aspiring CBT Psychotherapists and Associate Psychologists (counselling) who are passionate about supporting others in achieving meaningful, goal-oriented change.

Learners with a relevant mental health qualification (e.g., a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology) will gain practical skills necessary to begin practising as a CBT Psychotherapist, particularly in behaviour-focused interventions.
